Does anyone out on the net know of a graphics windowing library (or C, Pascal, Fortran routines) for the Z-100? I recently purchased the Ecosoft C compiler which has graphics routines for the Z-100 (ANSI required), but the windowing routines are limited to PC compatables. I would like to build some programs which use the Z-100s graphics capability (not thru ANSI) which will use pop-up (and pull-down) windows, but don't have the expertise to build the graphics/window routines myself. I know such routines exist since there are several pop-up style programs for the Z-100, but the source code seems to be elusive at best. Does the SIMTEL library contain any? Is anyone who has written windowing programs for the Z-100 willing to put the source up on the library? Since the Z-100 is losing ground to the 286/386 machines, I can't see why releasing such routines into the PD would cause severe financial problems for the developer (unless the developer would be willing to package such routines into a library and sell it). Any ideas? Any help?
